In June 2010, we launched You Need To Know.
Our research has found a shocking lack of support for many children with autism who also have mental health problems.
71% of children with autism also have a mental health problem. It doesn’t have to be like this. Children with autism can have good mental health just as anyone else can, and our new campaign aims to make this a reality.
The government needs to know that the mental health system is failing children with autism and that by acting now we can change our children’s future.
